  • CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.
  • We hope the site problems here are now solved, however, if you still have any issues, please start a ticket in Contact Us

    2001 and the evolution of consciousness

    I was just wondering if anyone here has seen the film "2001: A Space Odyssey" by Stanley Kubrick*? it raises some interesting questions about the evolution of "higher consciousness" in the opening scenes of the movie a group of "ape men" are shown coming into contact with technology (or at...

    so do you agree...or not...tell me what you think

    I didn't say you said I *should* - I said that by your standards there would be nothing worng with my doing so and that no one would be able to question what I believed in because it was no different to anything else people believed in.

    so do you agree...or not...tell me what you think

    been there.. done that. for a year or so in my early teens I thought god seemed like a great idea. but now I think.. well.. it's a very very simplistic explanation and one that is full of holes. Someone I used to know watched the matrix films and TRULY believed their stories to be...

    so do you agree...or not...tell me what you think

    yeah, but you see.. the thing is.. if a bookseller was given a copy of the bible today.. not knowing what it was. he would most probably put it under "fantasy" It strikes me as rather absurd to say the bible is as valid a source of fact as any modern science book. you say that any...

    oh no no.. because the bible was written by god. *very serious face*

    so do you agree...or not...tell me what you think

    I have not read Darwin’s writings. yet you assume I follow it blindly because of "what I believe"? I do not understand your logic. the bible was NOT written directly by god. but rather by those who claimed god was speaking through them, correct? tell me. if a man were to come to...

    so do you agree...or not...tell me what you think

    the *theory* of evloution was *first spoken of* (i believe) by darwin. yes. but then.. darwin is a man.. and he never claimed that a higher power was talking through him. so for some strange reason I find myself more willing to listen to him than someone who says they have spoken to god.

    So the bible is written by god? yes or no?

    so do you agree...or not...tell me what you think

    if all life doesn't have a common origin - does that mean god didn't create it? you seem to be contradicting yourself here. I assume you're talking about god? in which case.. I must point out.. men wrote the bible.

    isn't this in conflict with the bible?

    so do you agree...or not...tell me what you think

    I don't actually claim to understand the working of the universe. but it seems to me that one of the possible explanations for this is that space is full of vortexes or black holes which would, put simply, "bounce you to another part of space." - meaning that if you kept going in one direction...

    so do you agree...or not...tell me what you think

    but the thing is.. I *do* believe in a creation of some kind. I just don't believe that it was performed by a conscious "god" who was actively setting out to create life. so can you prove to me that whatever you believe created the universe knew what it was doing? PS: re spelling, I...

    eh.. this isn't really true though, is it? the world is hardly on the road to hell. there is loads of hope for the future in the world today. actually.. as far as I can see.. a very large amount the PROBLEMS and SUFFERING in the world come from religious conflicts noteably those between...
